.:: First Place State Convention Grants for National Convention ::.

Any IJCL member who received a first-place award in any academic, graphic arts, or creative arts contests or in certamen at state convention may apply for a portion of the Rent-A-Roman funds by May 10. He/she may apply for as many first-place awards as he/she received; however, the applicant must agree to participate in those events at the national convention. No first-place winner is an automatic recipient; application is required. If a student does not want to compete in a contest, he/she should not list it on the form. The money will be divided equally among the first-place awards. (It is possible that a person could have more than one first-place award. Each one would count separately.) The maximum amount a student could receive would be the total cost of a national convention packet. A recipient who does not participate in the event at national convention must return the money to the state. Applicants are encouraged to review the national rules for each contest as state and national rules sometimes differ:

N.B. Certamen winners: If you list Certamen on this form, be certain that you have emailed the co-chairs at chair@ijcl.org before the April 21 deadline to claim your spot on the state team. You will not be required to tryout on May 16, but you will need to attend that first practice.

Winners should see their sponsor for the official forms, which are printed on blue paper. If you need additional copies, please open this link and print a copy on blue paper:
